Three girl students — Mishika Sood, Vaidehi Duggal and Pranika Jain — of DAV Public School, BRS Nagar, gave good of themselves in the Punjab Schools U-14 Cricket Tournament. Mishika, captain of the Ludhiana team, performed well with the bat and ball. She remained unbeaten on 35 runs in the quarterfinal of 8-overs each side against Bathinda and also remained unconquered on 26 in the final against Patiala.

Mishika was adjudged the best wicketkeeper-batswoman of the tournament. Ludhiana lost to Patiala on the last ball of the match and had to content with the second position.

Vaidehi and Pranika, medium pace bowlers, also made their presence felt, bowling very economically. The school management appreciated girls for fine performance and their coach Amandeep Singh.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
